idk if non-Chicken Little comments are welcome, but… I thought it was really very apt when you compared this bit of a slump for Roger to that miserable stretch Rafa went through during the indoor season, up through getting utterly slammed in every match at the WTF. once he got his feet from his least favorite surface to his favorite one, it took him literally ten games to perk up, and I’m pretty sure a transition that fast has to be mostly mental. Roger’ll be fine when he gets to grass. =)

Ok. I think I’m over yesterday. Except now Masha has lost and I’m back to wondering why the tennis gods are punishing me. I’m sorry I haven’t watched a full match Rog played this year, but I don’t want to jinx him OK??! Anyway, where was I?

I have an unusually good feeling about Madrid, if he keeps insisting that he’s not worried about anything, shouldn’t we believe him? The guy has had to deal with this kind of thing for certain periods of every year since 2007, so if he still believes everything is ok then so do I. We just have to be really patient, as difficult and frustrating as it is. It was this time last year that things turned around so I’m hoping the same thing happens again. Just do me a favour Sod, beat Rafa. Please.

How is it possible to stay mad at someone who is so remarkably normal……(well if he loses to stan ) By the way guys Rafa is 285 pts behind Nole so all he has to do is reach the final and he is back at 2.

Not Madrid-related,but I’m tardy to the party and only just saw the Davis Cup playoff draw…
Some random ones,obviously guessing you know Oz are at home to Belgium,US travelling to Columbia,and as for Switzerland?
Um yeahhhh hands up who sees Roger travelling to Kazakhstan a week after the USO?No one…no one!?Okay then :P

HaHa read what that Bozo wrote,as usual a ridiculously condescending piece , but the live comments of the match on the blog more than made up for that pile of shit that qualified as an article …. there are some batty ones out there doots(sounds familiar ;) )
